Bob, Of more interest will be how do you erase those files? You will have to manually issue a few ERASE commands before doing LISTFILE DUMMY * A (E to make room for the CMS EXEC file.
You might be able to issue ACCESS 191 A (ERASE but you had better have a backup of the other files on that A-DISK. You should have used a T-DISK.
